Isabella's POV
Cody instantly looked at me. Ten vampires, really, it could be anyone. My thought was the Cullens and the Denalis. But they knew not to mess with us, so why would they want to be here?
I quietly ran to my closet, where I kept my bow and arrow. Cody was pulling something out from under my bed. I looked at him and gave him a look, he just shrugged.
I turned out the lights in my room and opened my bedroom door. All the lights were out downstairs as well, we were preparing for a fight.
I stepped back into my room and quietly looked out the window. They were standing in front of the house, all of them were wearing black. They were speaking in another language, so I couldn't pick up anything they were saying.
Cody threw something at me to get my attention. I glared at him.
"What?" I whispered.
"It would be nice for you to call your little friend Lavinia." He whispered.
I nodded and grabbed my phone. I looked ridiculous by the way. Me wearing spongebob pajamas with a bow and arrow on my back and a pistol in my hand.
I quickly dialed Razi's number. Hopefully, she wasn't busy. But she answered.
"Hello?" She asked.
"Lavinia, grab your parents and get to my house. There are ten vampires standing outside my house. Don't wait, but be careful. It's not the Cullens or the Denalis, get here." I whispered and shut off my phone. Cody was peeking out of the window again.
I looked out also, seeing that they were still standing there. No one knew if they wanted to fight with us, or if they wanted to talk. But turning off the power meant they wanted to kill us, you just don't darken a Hunters' house to talk. They meant business.
Then Cody grabbed me by my arm, yanking me to the floor. I heard my window break and a gas bomb go off.
"Bella, get ready." Cody yelled at me. "Hold your breath!"
I held my breathe and was able to get to my dresser. I yanked two shirts out and threw one to Cody so he would be able to breath. We cocked our guns and ran out of the room.
The others were standing at the door, back to back, waiting.
"What happened?" Charlie asked.
"Gas bomb." Cody said. "Burns, but manageable."
I wasn't even focusing on the pain that was coursing through my body, I was focused on the ten vampires that were standing outside my house.
"I called the Lavinias." I said. Charlie nodded. And then we felt the vampires moving around the house. They were surrounding us.
"You can hear them. They aren't English."
"Russians." Uncle Tim said.
"Russians?" I asked. "They came all the way here to kill us?"
"No, well yes. I killed one of their own." Charlie said. "They've been trying to get to me for a long time."
"Idiots." I said.
"Why don't they just burn down the house?" Heather asked.
"They wouldn't want to draw attention to any neighbors." Charlie said. Makes sense...
"Hello, Charlie." someone said. I looked around the house, wondering where they were coming from. "I see you brought your entire family here. What a nice little reunion... I see your daughter has joined the party. Maybe I should kill her while you watch... Just like you did with me and my wife." His heavy Russian accent was making me nervous. What if he was able to kill us? What if he was kill m? I was only new...
Heather saw that I was nervous, so she nudged me and rolled her eyes. Was the man bluffing?
"Well, if you want to do that, then go ahead. But I'm pretty positive you'd be seeing hell before I do anytime soon... friend." Charlie answered back.
There was a silence surrounding the house. No one was moving, no one was breathing. It was still and silent. My hands were already placed on the arrow, which was aligned with the bow. I was scanning the darkness, waiting for someone to move, waiting for someone to say something... anything. Then I started thinking about Razi, where was she? Why is it taking her so long? Then a sudden burst of confidence came washing through me.
"Why don't you show your face?" I asked. "I mean, you are here to kill us. Why can't I know who it is?"
"Confident girl." I heard a woman say. "It makes me sick."
"You're afraid. You know what we're capable of, so you hide. You hide in the depths of the shadows, watching us, watching how we react to the words that slip out of your mouths. You watch us to get a feel for us, to know our weaknesses, to know our strengths. That's how most people live, they observe. They want to know anything, everything. And that's what your doing with us. You know his weakness, you know may know mine. Yet, here I am, waiting for you, waiting for you to pull something off, finding the right moment to kill you, and you the same. But when I speak, you back away, you're afraid. You were not expecting, a girl like me, to want to fight. To stand up for herself. You were expecting me to cower away, to hide behind the others so they would protect me, so they would be venerable." I chuckled. "You're all little fools. And a good fool you are."
I waited and waited for a response. Neither my family or the Russian vampires said any word. They merely stood there, silent and still.
"Nice speech." I heard a voice say, Razi... I could see her shadow. She was coming down the stairs and once she ended the last step, the light flickered on.
The Russian vampires were gone, not in any sight.
"I had them where I wanted them to be." I said, growling at Razi. I was going to make my move to kill them, so I wouldn't have to worry about any other vampire.
"You scared them Isabella. They are going to come back, but now that they know a Lavinia is helping them, they will stay away." Charlie said. "Henry, it's nice to see you again."
"Of course Charlie. How's the lovely Renee?" Henry asked.
"Away right now. She's just fine." Charlie answered. "Thanks for the back up."
"Anytime Swan, you know me." Henry said. "We should get leaving now. The girls have school in the morning. See you later to all."
The Lavinias left and I went straight to me room. Not wanting to look at anyone anymore. I didn't want to wait for the Russians to attack, they needed to be killed. This waiting game, it's tiring. And they will get me at my most venerable moment.
I fell asleep with much on my mind, though I was ignoring everything that was happening in the past and now. I was able to fall asleep without much trouble.
In the morning, I quickly got dressed and ate breakfeast. I wanted to get to school without having to rush. I wanted to talk to the Cullens before school started. I drove myself to the school and stayed in my car in the parking lot. I was just remembering how much I missed my truck. Damn I love that truck. Though I won't complain about this car, it was nice. I did jump when someone tapped on my car window. It was Drew.
I stood out of the car, smiling like a little kid.
"Hi." I said.
"Hey." He said, he was rubbing his fingers through his hair, blushing a little. So cute...
"Soo... Umm... I was wondering, would you like to go on a date with me?" He asked.
I smiled, I'm thinking Razi put him up to this. "Is Razi forcing you to do this?"
He suddenly became confused. "No. I just thought it would be nice to, you know, go out."
"Sure, I'll go." I said, grinning like a fool. Wait, don't let your guard down... not now.
"Sweet. Umm, pick you up at 7?" he asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"Cool. Umm, wear something fancy." He said, still blushing. I nodded, smirking, and he walked away. He's so flippin' cute.
When he walked away, I noticed the Cullens from the other side of the parking lot. Edward was staring at Drew, like was going to kill him or something. Doesn't matter, I was going to cuss them out anyways.
"Hey." I said, walking up to them.
"What?" Edward asked, he seemed annoyed- a little hurt too. Then I observed the other Cullens, their eyes were dark, even Alice. They weren't thirsty, I would be able to tell, but something was wrong with them.
"What the hell is wrong with all of you?" I asked.
"Umm... well, the Denalis are away, who is our family friend. We know almost everything about the hunters and two of the strongest hunter family's are threatening us. And you're wondering what's wrong?" Edward asked. "Please, even you should know that."
Before I could even say anything, they walked away from me, not taking a second glance at me. I was making their lives miserable. I sighed and walked back to my car to grab my books and headed inside.
I went straight to my locker, wondering all the things I've done in my life, questioning whether it was good or not. My life was different now. I had to take it in. Soon, I'd be 18. Very soon. And once I'm 18, my life will forever be different. I didn't know whether that was a good thing, or something to be afraid about.
"Someone looks like they're head is going to explode." I heard someone say. I rolled my eyes, not really paying attention to the voice.
"Razi. I'm just tired. My life will be different. Never the same again. The Cullens absolutely hate me and now, I don't know. My emotions are getting the best of me. How was it for you? The-" I stopped talking when I saw the person I was talking to.
It was a girl. She was wearing all black and had black silk hair. She was beautiful, she really was.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"Aw, I'm hurt. You don't remember me?" She asked with the very heavy Russian accent in her voice.
"Get away from me." I whispered.
"Oh, no. You and I are going on a trip. Don't worry, I won't make you late for your date tonight." She said.
"I'm not going anywhere with you." I said.
"Oh really? You wouldn't want your mother and her family to get killed, now would you?" She asked. "I'm always one step ahead of you Isabella. Now, I suggest you come with me." She said.
I didn't know whether she was lying or not, but I followed her out to my car. There were people waiting in the backseat, I was pushed between them, sitting in the middle while the girl and someone else was sitting in the front.
They pulled out of the parking lot. I was going to take a whereabouts of my surroundings, but they blindfolded me, taped my mouth, and cuffed my hands. I was completely venerable. I was not expecting them to move so fast. I was expecting days or even weeks later for them to come after me.
The group was speaking Russian, so I had absolutely no idea where I was going. The only thing I really could do is take a feel of the turns, remembering if we would be turning right or left, listening out for the surrounding things. But they were smarter than I was, they put headphones on my ears and continuously moved my body around, messing everything up. I no longer could detect anything.
When the car stopped, someone grabbed me and threw me straight onto the floor. My head hurt and I rolled to my side. They were speaking again and then they pulled me up and dragged me into the house- or whatever I was being dragged into.
I fell onto something soft, a couch maybe. Then they took the blindfold off of me and the headphones.
A man walked towards me, looking at me with such disgust.
"Isabella." He whispered and touched my hair. I swallowed, trying to hide the fear that was lurking in my body.
He took off the handcuffs and tape from my mouth- more like ripped it off. I called him a dirty bastard and glared at him.
"There is no need to be rude." He said.
I scoffed and looked at him. Was he being serious? "I'm the rude one?" I asked.
"Very much so. Listen, I'm not here to argue with you." He said. "I am merely revenging my wife's death."
"By killing me." I stated.
"Yes." He said. "Well, no. You see, Isabella. I'm going to let you go. I wanted to talk to you today-that's all. As for when I will be killing you, that will be later Isabella, do not worry. You and your family will have to have a life of paranoia. That is all."
I refused to be shocked by this disgraceful man. He wasn't going to scare me that easy. Even if he was going to kill me, he wouldn't wait long. So I should be expecting it to be soon. Where is the only thing that seemed to be concerning me. I pretended to be taken back, scared at the words that were coming at me.
I gulped before I said my next statement. "Talk about what?"
"The history of the Hunters. Most importantly, the Swans and the Lavinias."
"And if I didn't know anything?" I asked.
The girl that had kidnapped me here scoffed. "Please. You're a Swan. Even though you are fairly new, there will be a point in life that your father has talked to you, personally, about the Swans. You know because you are only a month away from your 18th birthday. So please, darling, save us a lie and tell us the truth."
It was true. The others told me about the Swans and the Lavinias a while ago. I needed to know the information, so they told me. As for the other vampires knowing about me, like the Cullens, for example, they probably didn't know about the Lavinias and the Swans.
The man sat down in front of me by pulling a chair up to him.
"Tell me about the Swans and the Lavinias." He said. "Why is every vampire afraid to hear those two names, especially together."
"If vampires are afraid then why bother us? Shouldn't you be afraid also?"
"Careful there girlie. I wouldn't want your mother to be killed." the girl said. If I had my way, I would kill her first... "And tell the truth. You're new. Not very skilled. I can tell when you're lying."
Hmm, might as well tell them the truth... I might just say it in a way that will scare them. I hid a smile that was coming to my facial expression. I didn't want to give anything away.
"Back in the day, right after the Volturi kings took place, Italy had its first hunter. The Swans and the Lavinia. They were the fathers, very strong, very fearless. They watched the city at night, making sure the Volturi wouldn't make it so obvious that they were killing someone."
"That makes no sense." the man said. "A Hunter is made to make sure the vampires and werewolves wouldn't kill anybody. Not to be made for protecting the secret."
"Ha... that's what everyone thinks. Yes, we are made to kill the bad supernatural, but we were also made to protect the supernatural secret. Think about it. What will happen when the humans find out about the vampires and the werewolves? Panic. They will want the supernatural dead. Mainly the vampires. When someone hears vampire, they think dead humans drained of blood. It would cause a riot, then all the vampires will be hidden, more hunters will be made because of the secret about the Hunters being out. Hunters are hidden as well. Remember that..." I said. "Now, back to what I was saying... The Swan and the Lavinia fathers went out to protect the city, and they ran into each other. You think that the Volturi have been around for the longest time, but they haven't. Both the fathers actually killed the first ruling Volturi.
Tortured them... killed them... And together they were making sure vampires stayed out of Italy. I bet the Volturi now never told you... anyone. But it is true. The First Ruling Volturi did not consist of Caius, Marcus, or Aro. Which means that the vampires history goes further back than you expected. You'd be amazed, actually. But now that the Old Volturi were thrown out, any vampires left quickly escaped the city, making sure to never look back. I don't even think that the First Ruling Volturi Guard is alive today actually.
Anyways, now that the Fathers rid the vampires, they were looking for wives and whatnot. Until, father Lavinia's sister came. I might remember her name- oh, Isabel. Isabel Lavinia came to Italy, looking for her brother. She was pretty, very pretty, especially enough to attract Swan. Nikalous Swan was his name. He ended up marrying Isabel. Turns out, after the wedding and honeymoon, Isabel was a hunter. Very strong, also. They had a child. A child that was a pure Hunter. Isabel and Nikalous named him... uhh... Joseph.
Joseph, being combined Lavinia and Swan, was stronger than anything Hunter. When he grew up, he was out of control, women wise. He slept with anybody, anything. He pregnanted so many women. All those children that was born was part Hunter, which they soon developed into a Full Time Hunter. This caused the Lavinia family bloodline, as well as the Swan bloodline, to continue. So really, the Lavinia's and the Swans are connected to each other.
You should already know that Hunters do not age. So Joseph, Isabel, and the fathers are actually still alive; however, no one knows where they are. There is a rumor going around that they are entombed, hidden away in pyramids deep down. However, it's just a rumor and really who knows what would happen once they awaken? Though, I would love to see what would happen.
The Swans and the Lavinia are stronger than all Hunters. We can sense more, almost close to not being completely human. Being that, we can easily kill a vampire or werewolf without having any problems. We are faster, inhumanly faster, we don't need to regenerate ourselves as much as other humans and Hunters do."
"So, in reality, the Swans and the Lavinias are stronger." the man said. "That's it?"
"What were you expecting? Spells, not being able to die?" I teased. "You should really look into things. Can I go now?"
"This was very disappointing." the girl said.
I giggled and looked at her. "I thought you said you could tell someone who's lying."
"Excuse me?"
"I lied. That wasn't all about the Lavinias and the Swans." I smiled.
She scoffed and looked away.
"I tell you what, I want to go home, well to school. I'll tell you more later. I don't want to waste more time here." I said.
"And you want to go back? How do you know that you won't say anything to Charlie?" the girl asked.
"I won't. Listen, you think that you're going to win, but in truth, you're not going to. Why don't you just let me leave? It's not worth the time, planning, waiting, losing."
The man chuckled and didn't say another word. He sighed and stood up without another word. He walked to the others and started speaking Russian. Apparently he was agreeing to what I wanted since they blindfolded me and cuffed me again. About twenty minutes later, we were at the school. It was second period now. I didn't realize almost two hours have passed by while I was with the Russians.
I sighed, knowing that I was going to have to come up with a plan on tricking Charlie to why I wasn't in first period.
I walked in late to my second, having no one special in my class. My math teacher, Mr. Jameson, was a pretty cool guy. Though, if you did anything not-so-smart, he would put you on blast. And walking in late to his class was one of them.
"Ah... Isabella, I see you decided to join the class twenty minutes later." He said. "Class, look, it's Isabella. Come, Isabella, stand in the front of the room and let us see why you were late."
I rolled my eyes as I walked to the center of the classroom. My classmates were laughing and whispering things. I heard a girl say I was with Drew and Trey behind the school. I narrowed my eyes at her, wishing that I could just punch her in the face.
"So, Isabella, tell us why you're late." He said. "This slip is a tardy slip, no reason why you should be late."
I sighed. "I was with Drew doing drugs in the bathroom. Oh, then a monkey came out of nowhere, throwing bananas at us. I had to run towards the forest and beat it with a little wooden stick that I found. Then, we decided to walk back which took about 5 minutes. That's why I'm late. I got chased by an angry monkey."
Mr. Jameson laughed. He knew I was a good girl, especially one that had straight A's. "Alright, alright, sit down and stop distracting the class."
I chuckled and found my seat that was next to this girl, who honestly had the worst smelling breath. But since she was so nice, I couldn't find a way to tell her that. So everyday, I brought mint gum and Tic-Tac for her. She kept taking them, so I was grateful for that.
"Hi Bella." She said, breathing right down my neck.
"Hey." I said, holding my breath. "Hey, you want some gum?"
"Sure." She said, a grabbed a piece. Thank the heavens...
The class continued like it usually did. I really wasn't paying attention, I was daydreaming about my date with Drew. Screw the fact that the Russians were out to get me. I was wondering what I was going to be wearing also.
All day, I did this. Lunch was really uneventful. Razi was talking with Trey and I was full-on flirting with Drew. I did think that I saw one of the Cullen boys drooling at me, literally. Drew was really funny and charming, by the way. He was one of those boys that let you talk about their day. He wasn't rude like some guys. He was sweet with dirty blonde hair. Very good-looking with a muscular body and dressed really nice. One thing that I couldn't stand about guys is the sagging. No one wants to see another man's underwear, at that point, I just consider them gay and they're trying to find a boyfriend. Drew, fortunately, wasn't like that. He was a gentleman. As for his sister, that was another story for another time.
It was the end of school and Drew was walking me out to my car. He was laughing at me, since I told him my story in second period. When we got to my car, he put his hands in his pockets and blushed- which meant he was being shy again. He was so shy it's cute.
And I could see why. He leaned down and kissed my cheek. Really, I blushed right then and there. We had a thing for each other, no doubt about that. I bit my lip, twisted my hair, and looked around dazed. I did that when I was shy.
"So, pick you up at 7?" He asked.
I was at a loss with words so I nodded. We then waved goodbye and I headed home in my car. I felt so freaking giddy I wasn't really paying attention to anything. Luckily, I got home safely without any accidents.
When I got home, Charlie was a little mad. Turns out the school had called him about me being absent in first and tardy in second.
"Where did you go?" He asked.
"Uh..." I said. Quick reason.
"Isabella, you can't just skip school... or did something happen?"
"Nothing happened." I said. "I just had... a little... problem." I said.
"What kind of problem to the point where you had to miss first and be tardy in second?" Charlie asked. I was slowly making him more angry.
"A... girl problem..." I said. I was thinking of Drew and how our date might be awkward, causing me to blush, and making Charlie believe I really had a girl problem.
I felt his awkwardness start rolling off of him, it was working. "Yeah, uhh... It's fine now."
He nodded. "Alright. I hope you didn't miss anything too important."
"Yeah, I know. I didn't miss anything. We had a substitute." I said. "Oh, and I'm going out on a date tonight."
"With who?" He asked.
"Uh, our neighbors. Drew Tallin." I said.
"Oooh, let's go shopping." Heather said, running towards me with her purse. I was about to complain until she full on grabbed me and yanked me out of the door.
When we got into the car, she started talking about all the different clothing I could be wearing for the night. We drove an hour straight to find a good place for clothing.
We ended up finding a dress that was too much for my own being, but Heather loved it and she wouldn't let me leave without buying it. So I ended up giving in, then she took me to a beauty hair place. The hairdresser, who was really rough by the way, made my hair look like a model's hair. It was more brown and bouncier. I have to admit, I loved my new hair style.
When we got home, it was five. Heather insisted that she do my makeup. I wanted it natural, but she wanted it sexy. After arguing for about ten minutes, she ended up getting what she wanted-like always.
I slipped into my dress, careful not to mess up my hair and makeup- which was red lipstick (super red, which I don't see the point because I'll be eating), and some light eyeliner and mascara. My dress was short and all black. It was halter dress, so Heather made me wear a push-up bra (I was not comfortable...). Then she made me put on some silver pumps, a silver-heart diamond necklace, and a whole bunch of silver bangles. I had a little silver purse with me, that, thankfully, I would carry instead of hold- I hated those purses. Then I looked in the mirror.
"Wow..." I said. I was at a loss for words again. Ha, Charlie is not going to let me out the house.
"You look amazing. I should be a fashion designer." She said.
"Uh..." I said. "You're a Hunter, I don't think that's going to work out so well."
"Thanks for crushing my dreams." She mumbled. I giggled.
It was 6:50 and I was sitting on the couch, listening to my male relatives giving me a lecture about being safe. Poor Drew, he was going to have to listen to them when he got here. So I texted him, yes I got his number, and told him to beware.
When he did get here, Uncle Tim was full-on eye balling him. And I was just sitting here, completely embarrassed, until Heather saved my life.
"Okay, yeah, whatever." She said and grabbed mine and Drew's arm and shoved us out the door with a 'have fun'.
We were silent until we pulled far, far away from the house.
"Sorry about that." I said.
He laughed. "It's okay. I've had worse dads."
"You've had a girlfriend before?" I asked.
"Yeah. But, she uh, she cheated on me." He said.
I frowned, who would want to cheat on him? He was so kind, so sweet. Without thinking, I patted his leg. "I would never do that."
I saw him blush then blushed also. "I wasn't expecting it."
We arrived at this restaurant, which was very warm inside. It was elegant, which I was expecting from him, he was a gentleman. He opened my car door, held the door open for me, pulled my chair out for me. He was really impressing me. And honestly, I don't get impressed that easy.
"You are very impressive." I said.
He smiled. "Some guys think it's an act. They think I'm trying to hide that I'm gay-which I'm not."
"I can tell that you aren't." I said.
"Thanks." He said.
We ordered our food, we both got ravioli. Then we talked about a lot of things and the basics. His favorite color was red, he hates the color pink, his favorite music is Rock, his favorite food is steak (well any meat), he has a thing for brunettes, he has a problem in math, he loves his family, he believes myths are ways for attention (which I laughed at), and he has problems sleeping at night.
When he told me that he could never sleep at night, I felt a little bad for him. He was in a crash 4 years ago, which hurt severely hurt his brain and his back. He's be going to physical therapy, which was helping a little. Drew paid the bill and we went into his car.
"I don't want to go yet." I said. I really didn't want to leave him yet.
He smiled at me and he drove me to a very, very pretty mountain view, even if it was dark, it was still beautiful. We stayed inside his car though, since it was literally frozen outside.
Then Drew decided to sit in the back seat.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Sit back here with me." He said.
I smiled, took off my heels, and pulled myself in the back seat. He even took off his jacket and wrapped it around me.
"Thank you." I whispered. But I couldn't take it anymore, I grabbed him and kissed him.
I actually think that's what we did for a long time. We sat in the backseat of his car and made out. For a while, it was intense, since he was lying on top of me and he was getting touchy-well so was I. Then someone called my cell phone. I thought it was my dad, so I pulled him off of me and leaped for my phone. It was Razi.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Hey. What are you doing?" She asked.
"I am on a date with Drew." I said.
"Oh my gosh, that's right. Sorry! Call you later!" She yelled.
I laughed and looked at the time- it was almost ten. Yet, I still didn't want to leave Drew. Hell, I just think I'm in love with him.
Drew kissed my neck and I noticed that his shirt was unbuttoned. I hummed and pulled my fingers through is hair and touched his face. He kissed my fingers and closed his eyes.
"I really like you." He said. "A lot. Even if it's early."
"I understand. I was just thinking the same thing." I said. He smiled and looked at me.
"If only you could come over, though my mom would kill me, thinking I would get you pregnant." He chuckled. I smiled. Our parents are crazy. "I have to take you home now."
"I know." I said, frowning.
"I really loved tonight." He said.
"Me too." I said. "It was really nice and fun."
We both blushed and pulled ourselves into the front seat after fixing ourselves. He drove me to my house and walked me to the front step. I could tell that he wanted to kiss me, but we both had a feeling we were being watched.
"See you tomorrow." He said.
I nodded. "See you tomorrow."
He took the chance to lean down and kiss my cheek, which made all my male relatives to come out.
I laughed. "Run!"
"See you later Bella!" He said, hopping into his car. It was funny if you think about it, he lived next to me. But this was Alaska, the houses were separated by a lot of land.
I took a shower and scrubbed the make up off my face and got ready for bed. Then entire night, I couldn't really stop thinking about Drew. It was one in the morning, and I was wondering he was at trying to sleep. I sighed and sat up. I looked in my room and saw Cody snoring on the couch. Then I decided to do something crazy.
I grabbed my jacket and snow boots and quietly headed outside. It was easy to get through the house, considering everyone was tired from doing absolutely nothing.
I grabbed my keys and walked outside in the front. It was so cold, really it was, but I didn't stop walking to his house. Ha, I'm so crazy. I didn't take me long to reach his house, considering I was walking really fast.
Since I was a Hunter, my senses were heightened and I could hear anything. So I listened to the house. Drew was in the back, towards the corner of the house. Almost away from the other bedrooms. Actually, he was on the bottom floor. I wanted to knock on his window, but that would freak him out. So I texted him. Then the light turned on and he opened his window.
"Are you crazy?" He asked.
"Yes." I said. Then he grabbed my arms and pulled me inside his room.
"You're insane." He whispered. He pulled me onto his bed and wrapped me in the blanket after taking off my jacket and boots.
"Did I wake you?" I asked.
"No." He said. "I was taking some medicine."
"Mhmm." I said, and laid my head on his chest.
"You don't... umm... wear a bra?" He asked.
"I don't when I'm sleeping." I said. He chuckled and rolled me over onto my back.
"Tempting... but I'd never do that too early." He whispered. I chuckled and kissed him. "Mmm... are you staying?"
"If you want me to." I said. "But I wouldn't want to get caught."
"True." He said. "You should stay till 6, my parents get up thirty minutes later."
I nodded and he laid his head on my chest. It was only one in the morning. So I ended up falling asleep with Drew in his bed. The next time I woke up was at 5:45. Drew was shaking me a little, trying to wake me up.
"Hmm?"
"It's almost time to get you home." He whispered. Really, we didn't want to leave each other. Damn, we were in love.
After fifteen minutes of making out, I ended up leaving through his backdoor and running towards my house. Luckily, no one was awake. And Charlie's snoring was blocking out the sounds I was making. But when I walked into my room, Cody was awake. We both looked at each other. He was sitting up, his hair a complete mess.
"Where were you at?" He asked, thankfully, he was quiet.
"Ummm..." I said. "Bathroom."
"Since 1 in the morning?" He asked.
I sighed and rolled my eyes, he caught me. "Sure, why not?"
"You went to Drew's house. At first, when you weren't in bed, I freaked out. I almost woke up Charlie. I followed your scent and it went straight to Drew's house." He said. "Did you sleep with him?"
"Sleep as in sex... or just sleeping?" I asked.
"Either one..."
"Just sleeping Cody." I said. I sat down on my bed and he just started at me. He mumbled something about me being crazy and he laid back down. I was about to go to school today, well actually to go see the damned Russians. Though, I wasn't going to say anything about that.
I couldn't go back to sleep, since I was going to wake up in like, 40 minutes. So I started to pull my clothes out of my dresser, until I heard someone downstairs. I didn't have a good feeling of that person, so I ran downstairs, wanting to see who the intruder was.
Once I reached the end of the steps, I saw the person's shadow running into the kitchen. But the person wasn't running fast, so it wasn't a vampire. When I ran into the kitchen, the person was moving now-towards the formal room. I grabbed a knife from the kitchen drawer and was able to throw it right onto the intruder's sleeve, not harming the person. I heard them shriek and went to go see who it was.
"Helen?"
Annnnnnnnnnnnd that's the end of this chapter. Until next time my pretties...
